Saluting Our Flag

We place a lot of emphasis (as well we should) on the Fourth of July, and its significance to our country and the U.S. Flag.
But we don't want to ignore another important day that honors our flag: June 14, Flag Day. This particular day was started bya couple of schoolteachers in the 1880's, and like July 4, is a great time to reflect on what our soldiers fight for, and what our flag stands for.
